Michael Sam documentary in the works: Michael Sam, the first openly gay player drafted into the National Football League by the St. Louis Rams, will be the subject of documentary that will air on the Oprah Winfrey Network.

The documentary is expected to take a “deeply, personal and up-close” look at the life of Sam after the football player made history when he was selected in the seventh round of the NFL draft. It will follow Sam as he attempts to “earn his spot” on the team.

“Like every player out there working to make a team right now, my focus is on playing football to the very best of my ability,” said Sam in a press release. “I am determined. And if seeing my story helps somebody else accept who they are and to go for their dreams too, that’s great. I am thankful to Oprah for her support and excited to work together.”

All eyes are on the 249th draft pick and first openly gay draft pick. Following his draft selection, Sam kissed his boyfriend, which inspired mixed reactions to the televised display of human affection.

“We are honored that Michael is trusting us with his private journey in this moment that has not only made history but will shape it forever,” said Oprah Winfrey said in a press release. “I am proud of the focus on authentic storytelling in our new documentary series format. The next real-life story we follow in ‘The Untitled Michael Sam Project’ promises to spark valuable, important discussion on life in America today. Acceptance and illumination start here.”
